The season starts at the end of August. For further details email football@herriardsportsclub.co.uk The tennis season starts in April. If you would like to join the tennis club or come along for a practice email tennis@herriardsportsclub.co.uk The club was established in 1884 and in its early years played sport in Glebe Field between Parsonage Cottages and the Saw Mill but just before the outbreak of the WW2 the local electricity company installed a pole right on the edge of the cricket square, forcing the club to move! During the early part of the war football was played opposite the school, but by its end negotiation with the Cheyney family saw both cricket and football played in the field opposite Forge Cottage. This made it very convenient for Frank White and son Owen to run the club, and was only a short distance from the New Inn public house (became the Fur and Feathers in the late 70s, where cricket teas were taken. In 1946 football moved behind the school, sharing a field with local livestock but in 1948 the cows moved out and the cricket team moved in, utilising the school facilities to change. In 1952/3 Owen White, secretary to both football and cricket, reformed the sport club and the original changing rooms were moved from Glebe Field. In 1978 the president of the club, J L Jervoise, opened a new pavilion on the site positioned conveniently to serve both football and cricket, and providing changing and toilet facilities with electricity. In 1999 planning approval was granted to create a new sports field and pavilion on Nashes Field and following a major funding project this was officially opened in 2011 and named Herriard Green. This development has provided the club with fantastic grounds with full facilities and now includes tennis courts. Lasham Gliding Society
